Lydia Davis : Critical Essays
Lydia Davis is a widely-read, award-winning experimental author and translator. But, over her nearly fifty-year career, there has been surprisingly little scholarship on her fiction. Seeking to rectify her critical neglect, Lola Boorman and Julie Tanner bring together a diverse and international group of researchers to reposition Davis in the literary field.
Drawing on her essays, novels, short stories and translation practice as well as archival material from the Lydia Davis Papers at Columbia University’s Rare Books & Manuscripts Library, this edited collection provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge appraisal of Davis’s oeuvre. Its seventeen original chapters explore new approaches to interpreting Davis’s work, placing it in conversation with animal studies, gender and feminism, medical humanities and disability studies, climate writing, psychoanalysis, life writing, translation studies, and short story theory. Lydia Davis: Critical Essays is a landmark volume that fosters fresh and exciting directions for the study of an essential contemporary writer.
